...and Injustice for all
Ok, sorry its been so long but I havent had anything to say. Now i have something to say. Did anyone watch the University of Florida tapes of student Andrew Meyer getting tazered by the cops at a John Kerry Q&A session?!?! WTF? I watched all the videos I could find from different cameras and angles and read the police report. And then for the first time ever i actually voiced my opinion on the Washington Post blog forum.
I know we don't usually talk about politics, but this isnt about democrats and republicans and all that bullshit, this is about the death of liberty and our human rights as well as constitutional rights. So watch this video (or any of the others out there) if you want to know what's going on:

Im writing about it because im pissed! And afraid. And disturbed by whats going on in this country. This isnt the first sign of fascism in America, its just the straw. So far we have given up our 4th amendment right, the habious corpus granted to us by the constitution, our freedom to run yellow lights and watch sunstes in the park apparently, (in a personal case), and so many other constitutional rights in the name of fucking safety! Well they can keep their "safety" because I would rather have my godsdamned freedoms and liberty and simple human rights. And now evidently our right to freedom of speech is being infringed upon in the name of safety from terrorism.
There are not many things that set me off, but injustice is on the top of the list!
